Wemby Silences The Garden! Spurs Break Knicks' Streak in a Game 3 Thriller 

Updated: June 9, 2026 • 4 min read


The New York Knicks were riding a historic 13-game win streak, but Victor Wembanyama just reminded the world that the future arrives on his timeline.

In a fiercely contested, tempers-flaring battleground at Madison Square Garden, the San Antonio Spurs edge out the Knicks 115-111, snapping New York’s 46-day undefeated run and cutting the Finals deficit to 2-1.

Team Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Final
SAS 33 24 35 23 115
NYK 22 42 27 20 111

The Flashpoints You Need to Know:

  • Wemby’s Statement: The 7ft 4in alien dropped a masterclass with 32 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 blocks, utterly anchoring the second-half defense.
  • The Drama: Things boiled over early when Wembanyama and Jalen Brunson tangled, with social media melting down over an uncalled shove to the head that analysts flagged as a missed Flagrant 1.
  • Foul Trouble Fiasco: Brunson was cooking with 20 points but picked up a devastating 4th personal foul in the 3rd quarter, stalling the Knicks' offensive engine.
  • The Rookie Clutch: Stephon Castle stepped up massive with 23 points, knocking down cold-blooded shots late to keep the Knicks at bay.
"New York still holds the 2-1 driver's seat, but the momentum shifted heavily in the second half. Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges combined for just 4 points post-halftime—a gap the Knicks cannot afford to repeat in Game 4."

Did the refs miss a crucial call on Wemby, or did the Spurs simply out-hustle the Knicks at the Garden?
